Default Protect Individual Form Fields/Table Cells

Is there a way to protect/unprotect individual form fields or table cells?
I'm creating forms with calculation fields, but when the form is protected
the field doesn't calculate and can't be calculated manually. I'm used to
WordPerfect, which is extremely easy to use in this regard.

To make the calculated field work, you must check the box for "Calculate on
exit" in the Form Field Options for each form field that contributes to the
calculation.
